I don’t get it. Superman and Batman are both supposed to be GOOD GUYS. Why would there be any VS.? Unless it is a competition to do the most GOOD, that is!

That said, I’m a once-every-few-years movie goer, and don’t expect to attend.

Because Superman is a liberal trying to impose his brand of “justice” on Gotham, where Batman’s brand of justice suffices.

There are a couple of comic book series where they ended up fighting. The most famous is a graphic novel from 1986 called The Dark Knight Returns. That series was so influential in the comic book world, it brought back Batman to the big screen.

B v S is a direct sequel to Man of Steel.

Turns out one of Bruce Wayne’s corporate buildings was the site of a major blowout between Superman and General Zod, which resulted in a lot of civilian casualties.

That doesn’t sit well with ole Bats.

Bruce Wayne was on the ground watching the destruction unleashed by Superman and Zod. I think someone he cared about got in the way. He got pissed. Of course, in his mind, it's all Kalel's fault. So he's on a mission now. Etc. Etc.

My question is...no matter what kind of technology Bruce Wayne has, how can a human stand up to Superman and even hope to defeat him? Superman can accelerate to Mach 8 and then come flying at Batman and go right through him and his technology. Game over.

Superman overstayed his visa and Batman is trying to deport him?

I got the impression from the trailer that Superman somehow lets his fan base go to his head, prompting an attitude adjustment from Batman.

Jim, I agree, Batman and Superman are the GOOD guys. No need for them to fight. I won’t be watching this movie, I don’t agree with the premise.
